Four sisters live with their mother, facing Christmas without their father as the American Civil War is underway. The family is settled in a new neighborhood, living in genteel poverty after the father lost their money. Meg and Jo March, the elder sisters, both work outside the home for money to support the family. Meg teaches four children in a nearby family, while Jo aids her grand-aunt March, a wealthy widow whose strength is failing. Beth helps with housework, and Amy attends school. Their nearest neighbor is a wealthy man whose orphaned grandson lives with him. The sisters introduce themselves to the handsome shy boy, Laurie, who is the age of Jo. Meg is the beautiful sister; Jo is the tomboy; Beth is the musician; and Amy is the charming artist with blond curls. Jo is impulsive and quick to anger. One of her challenges in growing up is to control acting out of anger, a challenge that also faced her mother, Marmee. Marmee advises Jo on speaking with forethought. The boy Laurie enjoys his neighbors, joining the family often in play and home theatrics written by Jo. His grandfather, Mr. Laurence, is charmed by Beth, and gives her the piano used by Laurie’s dead sister.

It's a great book, very, very sad but interesting filled with great things! Definitely my favourite book of all time!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BOOK! Louisa May Alcott goes into great detail to clearly describe the story. Many people might say it's boring, but that's probably the first chapter or so... Afterwards, it becomes a really interesting story. I recommend it for EVERYONE, especially girls :D

Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott, may have been one of the most inspiring books that I have ever read. Among the four young, spirited mistresses in which the story revolves, the author creates a spectacular sensation that brings out the best in eager readers. This is a Must-Read!
